Big and bold challenges.
Does the "no difference between creating and using software" not cover much/most of your considerations?
I'm curious where you've taken to the idea of things like graphs over trees, should a new system be so opinionated? or is there a way to develop something flexible enough that when the next thing after graphs comes along, your system will be able to adapt.
- miguelrochefort 11y agoI have lost all motivation for lesser challenges. I can't be excited about a very specific project with a doman-specific purpose. One could probably summarize my mission as to bridge the gap between consuming and creating software. Sometimes, I tell people that I'm creating a new language (which I am). A tree is just a unidirectional graph. Most file systems use the tree structure which is crippling. I'd like to know what's better and more flexible than a graph.
- doublerebel 11y agoI think we can build the trust system using a hypergraph. There's also a couple special kinds of nodes that will shorten the walk between seemingly disconnected items. I've been thinking about this for a while too.
- miguelrochefort 11y ago> A simple graph can be considered a special case of the hypergraph, namely the 2-uniform hypergraph. Hypergraph it is.
